I will say since 1994 I think it has gotten warmer. It stays warmer, longer, into our summer, spring, summer, spring, seasons.

I can say the same in Miami, 80s and early 90s it wasn't this warm year round. I remember going trick or treating and having to wear a sweeter. Not now a days, its usually raining or warm or maybe both. The last 10+ years have been much warmer in South Florida. North Florida I think however has been getting the cool fronts, its like they die out in Orlando the last few years. In 2007 Miami had 313 days of Highs in the 80s or 90s. 313 days thats over 10 months of heat, not very pleasant IMO.

I could always turn off the A/C by the middle of October at the lasted but usually the early part of October. I finally turned it off the other day because it was beautiful but today even tho it is windy it is 83 in here.

Its not been bad in the orlando area, last winter was one of the coldest and longest ones weve had in a while. This coming season has taken a little while longer to start cooling down than normal, but now im sure it will last just as long and get just as cold as the regular winter seasons weve had in the past

I sense the same thing though the I-4 corridor seems like the period of cooler weather is much shorter as well. It used cool off there late in Sept and in SoFla around the 20th of Oct in the good old days. I notice tropical palms now as far north as Orlando whereas 15+ years ago you never found them much north of Jupiter except right near the coast. Last winter though was awesome. Best we can hope for in SoFla is to actually have up to 5 months of cooler weather from here like last winter..
